PREFATORY  REMARKS. 


\ 


This  Catalogue  embraces  the  titles  of  three  hundred  and  sixty  one 
anti-Methodistical  Works;  evjhty  by  Methodist  Authors;  eighty-five 
miscellaneous ;  and  twenty-one  political. 

But  those  who  have  made  special  bibliography  their  study,  are  aware  of 
the  difl&culty,  if  not  impossibility,  of  making  a  list  in  any  one  department 
perfect. 

There  will  be  found  a  number,  but  hy  no  means,  a  full,  much  less  a 
complete  list,  of  works  on  ecclesiastical  reform  by  Methodist  writers. 

There  are  also  the  titles  of  several  political  pamphlets,  occasioned  by 
the  publication  of  Mr.  Wesley's  *^  Calm  Address  to  our  American  Colo- 
nies,^' which  provoked  from  the  celebrated  Junius  this  memorable  rebuke  : 
"  You  have  forgotten  the  precept  of  your  Master,  that  God  and  Mammon 
cannot  be  served  together ;  you  have  one  eye  upon  a  pension,  and  the 
other  up  to  heaven;  one  hand  stretched  out  to  the  king,  the  other  raised 
up  to  God.     I  pray  that  the  first  may  reward  you,  and  the  last  forgive 

you." 

No  attempt  has  been  made — six  instances  only  excepted,  to  indicate  the 
numerous  anti-Methodistical  essays,  occuring  in  British  and  American 
periodical  literature. 

Where  these  marks  (||tt*)  ^^^  prefixed,  copies  of  said  works  may  be 
found  as  indicated,  in  the  following  libraries,  and  to  these,  other  publi- 
cations (of  like  character)  as  met  with,  will  be  added :

J  The  Enthusiasm  of  the  Methodists  and  Papists  considered. 

By  Bishop  Lavington,  with  notes,  introduction,  and  appendix;  by 
the  Rev.  Richard  Polwhele.     London,  1820;  8vo.,  pp.  cccxii  and 

493. 

Says  an  able  critic,  in  speaking  of  this  rare  and  truly  excellent  work  :— 
'*This  enrinent  writer  (Bisliop  Lavington,)  has  here  unfolded  the  ten- 
dencies of  a  system,  which  at  its  origin,  made  use  of  chicanery,  soph- 
istry, prevarication,  conceitedness  and  effrontry,  to  secure  a  position  in 
the  Ecclesiastical  world,  and  which  has  maintained  that  position,  by 
pretensions  to  extraordinary  revelations  usurping  inspiration, — its 
ranters,  comparing  themselves  with  propliets  and  apostles,  so  that  the 
phrenzies  of  a  disturbed  brain,  or  of  a  deluded  imagination,  are  con- 
sidered the  marks  and  tests  of  saintship  ;  its  leaders  possessing  a  spirit 
of  envy  and  rancor  towards  each  other,  and  a  spirit  of  bitterness  and 
uncharitableness  towards  the  rest  of  Christendom,  so  that  one  easily 
perceives  the  difference  between  such  an  experience,  and  the  true  de- 
votion of  sincere  piety,  the  unalfected  love  of  God  in  the  heart,  and  a 
proper  zeal  for  the  truths  of  his  word,  the  only  well-grounded  hope  of 
Heaven, — what  is  the  chaif  to  the  wheat  saith  the  Lord.  We  could 
wish  that  every  reader  could  be  induced  to  peruse  this  faithful  portrait- 
ure of  the  early  workings  of  Methodism.'"

"  This  rare  pamphlet  contains  some  very  unpleasant  particulars  of 
the  scandalous  conduct  of  the  Rev.  John  Wesley  during  his  apos- 
tolic mission  in  Savannah.  According  to  these  gentlemen  '  He  was 
indicted  before  a  Grand  Jury  of  Forty-four  Freeholders,  and  Thir- 
teen Indictments  were  found  against  him ;  one  concerning  Mr.  Wil- 
liamson and  his  spouse.'  Mr.  Wesley,  it  appears,  undertook  to 
'  pour  the  leperous  distilment'  into  the  ear  of  this  virtuous  lady,  to 
the  effect  that  'her  husband  had  no  right  to  regulate  her  behaviour 
as  to  conversing  with  Am.'  However,  as  soon  as  Mr.  Wesley  heard 
that  these  indictments  had  been  found  against  him,  he  did  not  tarry 
to  discuss  the  question  further,  but  skulked  out  of  the  town  in  the 
night,  fled  to  Charles-Town  and  thence  to  England."  See  pp.  41.

POLITICAL.

D 


Mr.  Wesley  did  not  confine  himself  to  religious  discussion.  In  tlie 
beginning  of  the  war  in  America,  his  character  imbibed  a  strong 
tincture  of  politics :  and  two  sermons*  he  preached  at  this  juncture, 
in  the  Foundi-}-,  and  West  Street  Chapel,  from  the  views  they  con- 
tained of  the  conduct  of  the  Government,  and  the  anti-ministerial 
spirit  which  they  breathed,  were  very  remarkable.  A  gentleman 
happening  to  ask  what  he  then  thought  of  the  public  measures, 
was  ansv.ered,  "What  should  I  think?  Oppression  will  make  a 
wise  man  mad."  This  is  sufficient  to  show  that  at  that  period,  he 
was  decidedly  averse  to  the  war.  Presently  after,  lie  changed  his 
sentiments.  His  conversion  was  instantaneous;  and  what  is  most 
remarkable,  in  the  history  of  tliis  event,  is,  that  sudden  as  it  was,  it 
was  absolute  and  complete.  Converted  himself,  his  next  care  was 
to  convert  his  brethren  ;  and  in  this  office,  his  zeal  was  indefatiga- 
ble. He  not  only  carried  his  sentiments  into  all  companies,  and 
made  them  the  subject  of  almost  every  conversation,  but  he  eagerly 
displayed  them  in  public  ;  and  the  pulpit  finished  what  the  table 
began. f 

When  Mr.  Wesley  changed  his  politics,  and  published  his  "  Calm  Ad- 
dress to  tlie  American  Colonies,"  many  copies  were  shipped  for 
New  York ;  a  gentleman  of  that  country,  alarmed  for  the  safety  of 
a  people  with  whom  he  was  connected,  and  trembling  for  the  proba- 
ble consequences,  should  a  pamphlet  of  such  a  tendency  pass  into 
general  circulation,  laid  violent  hands  upon  it,  and  destroyed  or 
returned  the  whole  impression;  so  that  till  a  considerable  time 
after  this  transaction,  scarcely  any  one  had  heard  that  such  a  piece 
had  been  published.  This  incident  was  the  salvation  of  Methodism 
in  America.  I
